Day 10 Monday 30 September
Team reports;
Newquay have access into the Costa Coffee bar. Last night they met up with a young American chap here on holiday and led him to a commitment. They also spoke with 3 Spanish lads here to work through the summer. They hope to follow up these 3 during the week.
St Endellion have made a great start in services and schools. Also a rather fabulous music concert where they were able to share their faith.
Camelford reports;
Team settling in well and getting a good response from the locals. One item of significance:-
Emma was preaching in Souls Harbour Church yesterday and sharing her testimony of how she went from an atheist scientist to a Christian. She did an appeal and two teenagers came up to at the end and asked for KGPs for their friends. Then a lady came up to her in tears because her son had been bullied for standing up for his faith on the school bus last Friday. Emma prayed for her and for her son and his friend.
In the evening youth event both teenagers were there and the team were able to help them with some apologetics and give them confidence in their ability to handle these difficult questions. In addition, two other team members had met the brother of one of these boys when out prayer walking that afternoon. We've prayed for protection as they travel to school on the bus and a few of us will be at youth group again on Friday to encourage them. Also the team have been encouraged and challenged through this - we're here doing mission for just one week yet these boys are doing it every day. It was a real joy to help equip them to share their faith. Nurturing/discipleship is just as important as leading people to faith and it was good that several of the team were able to experience this. It encouraged them enormously.
